Nice job by TW3 electing to show the Schalmont game at 6pm on Sunday instead of showing the “more important” Grey Cup Final between Montreal and Saskatchewan. Schalmont isn’t playing for a “real” state championship since MYC and Long Island (Section 11) don’t participate in the state playoffs. I’m hoping that the Roughriders can stop counting at 12 like they didn’t do last year.

My prediction for Class B Championship; Hornell 21 Schalmont 35. Schalmont’s D will get going in 2nd half and if they get to the outside running the ball they will make some big plays. Hornell has unquestionably excellent football team but they will fall short to Schalmont. Best of luck to both teams and all teams competing in this week’s championships at THE DOME!!!

#4, go to canada if you want to watch whatever the grey cup is and stop complaining about a local network airing a local sports program. seriously. as far as the games go, i cannot see any team shutting down canzeri and the rest of troy’s offense. their defense has played very well so expect a good game with troy coming out on top. as for the class b championship, its like this. Hornell is a “here is what we’re doing, now try and stop us” kind of team with Schalmont as a “guess what we’re going to do, then try and stop us” team. this will be a very competitive game like the AA game, but my prediction is schalmont in a close one

i think the validity of troys accomplishments at the section 2 level needs to be brought into question. they really did not play any quality opponents and still have yet to. the only real quality team that ive seen this year is ballston spa. their 2 linebackers, defibaugh and cook were absolute monsters this year. i think that they also matched up much better with panzieri and lewis, i think the scotties wouldve shut them down in a big way because of their stellar defense backed by defibaugh and cook.

The insanity must STOP ! Troy,Shen,Nisky, even BH-BL would have soundly beaten BS in the Super Bowl. But you know what ? They couldn’t get the job done & even make it there. Especially after what Troy has done the last 2 weeks. BS didn’t have enough to get the job done. Troy has faced better defenses & better linebackers & ran all over them. Obviously these LB’s weren’t all that, Troy’s D & linebackers were much better. Now stop embarrassing yourself & BS.

11, Just when we thought you guys couldn’t get any lower. For starters, New Rochelles defense was one of NYS best that’s 5x faster, stronger and better than Bspa’s. Canzeri would have had 300 yards against Bspa……in the first half.

First let me say Congrats to both Troy and Schalmont !!!!! I am going today to see both games but I am concerned.Rush is a AAA team that comes down to play AA not really fair ? Also Hornell has 25 in a row and are defending champs? Schalmont has no exp at this level.AGAIN I will be routing for Troy and Schalmont but worried they are out classed.I HOPE IM WRONG stay tuned GOOD LUCK BOYS REPRESENT

to number 12- in 2 games against bronson greene the scotties held him to a combined 140 yards and 1 touchdown. so yes i think its safe to say that they would shut canzieri down just like they did to bronson. but i dont think there was another pair of linebackers in section 2 that could even compare to defibaugh and cook. both are d1 talents easily. BSPA’s run defense was the best in section 2 this year.

@ 11 & 20 – We listened to all the pre-season hype about the Cookie Monster and Defin-pow pow pow. We endured the endless rants about little scottie going to the Dome. Now to the video tape. 2010 saw puppypaws at 6-3 which really does not tell the whole story. Lil Scottie barely got by Saratoga (blocked extra point), Guilderland (last minute TD) and Schenectady. Were Cookie monster and crew not playing in those games? Lets not forget the home coming blowout vs Nisky. Yes yes we all know the starters were out getting ready for the AA championship and trip to Syracuse. Next year will be the real wakeup call in BSpa. Lucky to see 500. But don’t let that stop you from coming on here and keeping us all entertained. After all who doesn’t love a good work of fiction?

@28 – Troy adjusted and would have no problem with Nisky as they have already proven. On the other hand as you are a BSpa homer you are intimately aware of how Nisky can blow a team out. For example…at your home coming game. I remember standing at the fence watching as Nisky sugically moved the football while lil scottie stumbled. Next year is gonna be a rude awakening in BSpa. The talent pool is running dry. 500 at best.

31 – Above the fray. Atta boy. Football blogging days are now behind me. On to basketball when the real hate starts….CBA will without question dominate the hardwood this year and repeat as section champs. Look forward to seeing y’all in the funny papers…or at least in James’ hoop blog. Peace.

The Cookie Monster name was picked up from a BSpa blogger talking smack. Same with Defin-pow-pow. Hope to see you in the basketball blog. Happy Holidays to all. Like Elvis the Cookie Monster has left the building.
